I haven’t looked into the “connected joe”. Is it garbage or should I pull the trigger?

It’s not garbage but it’s not great, not worth its retail imo. For less than a MSRP KJ1 though…

Even if you resell you could make money on that. I hope you did it just fine to keep too

Konnected Joe is awesome, even if you don’t care about having a temp control fan the auto fire starter is really where it shines

It’s a Konected Joe. No matter the price, I wouldn’t be buying it.

Not a bad deal at all

Do it. I got a floor model at Home Depot around $1k and have seen plenty of posts in this sub going for $900ish. I did end up re-adjusting the lid for a better seal but that was only a minor inconveniece.
I really like the assurance the electronics offer, I don’t have to worry about getting it dialed in. If I’m cooking low temp 200-300, I light it, let it get going, close it up, set temp and I know it will nail the temp every time with no further monitoring from me.
Even better, if I’m cooking at higher temps, I just add charcoal, put my heat shield if desired, grate, set the temp and auto start and it will go to and hold temp without me doing anything further. I call it “oven mode”.
If I want to reverse sear, I get my meat to temp and then crank it to 600, open the top and the fan will blow and get it raging hot in a couple minutes.

Nope, I got my classic Joe 2 at HD for around $500.
Go for it, it’s legit!

None of the HDs in my region stock anything except Classic IIs and, as far as I can tell, none of those stores’ managers are liquidating them over the holiday weekend. However, I will be able to visit two HDs and two Lowe’s tomorrow while running errands so I will check out each store. Depending on your market area and the demographics of the store’s region, the thing about Home Depot is these clearance deals are indiependent manager decisions: ephemeral, spontaneous, and hard to find. Right place. Right time. You could travel around your market area and visit five HDs and not see the same offer in any of them.

I thought 1000 for BGE was a hefty investment. Tho im sure this has plenty of features to make it worth it lol

1/2 off is a great price. You will come to find unless you go with a big joe the cooking surface is a bit small
